The lady at reception was lovely. We drove to Sitia and realized we had left our passports and money belt in a drawer. She was phoned and went up and found them and put them in her safe for us!! So kind of her. We will recommend her hotel!
This modern 5-star hotel is surrounded by acres of gardens, overlooking the Mirabello Bay, just minutes from beaches and the fishing village of Elounda.

The lady at reception was a 10/10! She was knowledgeable about local history, suggested great places to visit, and was both happy and friendly. She really made our stay (and the rest of our trip thanks to her suggestions) delightful!

We visited it after big towns like Chania and Rethymno, so we felt like it is very small and quiet.
If you want a long walk, you can go to the Kalydon island, see some goats and Chapel of Saint Luke.
The restaurants near the sea are pretty fancy, the prices are high enough.
If you want to taste the real Greek cuisine go to Coha Grill House.
This is a real taverna with absolutely delicious food and welcoming atmosphere. And the prices are fair.
Also you can take a boat to Spinalonga island. I recommend, the history of this island is impressive.
It takes about 20 minutes to reach it and costs 14 euros back and forth.
The boats departure every 30 minutes from 10.30 a.m. till 4.30 p.m.
All in all I can say that this place is suitable for older people or for people who don't prefer active rest.
Energetic people will be bored here.

Elounda is a very relaxing place with everything...plenty of boat trips for fishing and ferries to Spinalonga. Beach and restaurants within walking distance with plenty of places to sit for those not just as mobile. There are buses to travel to Plaka and Nicos Longa. There is also a small tourist train that takes you on a trip up to the mountains .

Elounda is a compact small town on a beautiful sheltered bay. Easy to walk around to visit shops and the many restaurants, tavernas and cafes. In high season it's very much a resort but it's also really nice to visit it out of season, when it's just a working town. There are expensive resorts and hotels outside the main town and it's obvious that there is sufficient income for the local authorities to keep the roads, pavements, infrastructure, etc., well maintained, unlike some other places on Crete.

Would be a charming town if not sooo many tourists who are being brough to Elounda with big busses to do boat tours.
Above has impact on prices and daily routine in the town, leaving little space for Cretean live-style.

Elounda is a great place - very pretty, everything you need is within walking distance - you dont really need a car. Beaches are close by, or you can walk further out to them. Bars and restaurants all around - some cheap and cheerful, some traditional some finer dining - but all are excellent.
You can get boats from the harbour/port to various places. Lots of places to visit - Spinalonga, Ag Nik, Heraklion, museums etc
Also if you like walking - there are a lot of options around the peninsula and along to Plaka.
It isnt cheap but isn't expensive. There are A LOT of English people who go to Elounda (regularly) - but its not full of sports bars or English breakfast places!
A really good place for a first timer to Crete or Greece.
Everybody is friendly and its a very chilled out place.

Elunda is a little fishing village that has grown with the tourist industry, loads of taverna's and restaurants easily keep you going for two weeks, some nice bars as well.
We go in May or September, September is still up to 30 deg and the sea is lovely and warm, it is a lot quieter and relaxing with older people being the main tourists.
The town has two good beaches, It overlooks a bay that is guarded by Spinalonga Island formerly a leaper colony and before that a Venetian fort, worth a visit by boat from the harbour.
Along the coast a couple of miles in a Taxi is Placa a charming place to have a meal or a drink in the evening, has some very good restaurants with a beautiful view of Spinalonga.
The other side of Elunda is a large town of Agios Nikolaos Lots of shops and things to see even more restaurants.
We hired a car for a few days and went out and about there are a few interesting arclogiclde sites within an hours radius, Kritsais a very old village inland up in the hills, it is worth a visit with lots of craft shops and taverna's and nice views,
We have been to Elunda 4 times and will go back next year hopefully.
Amazing view from the suites. very good breakfast. great service and staff. clean, good atmosphere in resort surroundings. Elounda area is nice and cozy.
we had a rare problem of some noise coming from some equipment in the room. the staff did every effort to fix it and also to solve the situation for us immediately, including to offer us a change to another suite (so we will not wait till it’s fixed) and solved the situation with care and kindness.
Beautiful hotel, clean and spacious rooms and very friendly and helpful staff. We had a wonderful stay at Elounda Heights and particularly enjoyed the views, the lovely gardens, pool and comfortable sun loungers, the delicious breakfasts and the calm and relaxed atmosphere. We only had one dinner here, but the food was delicious all freshly prepared and probably the best we had on our whole trip! We look forward to a return visit!
Sitting just above Elounda, on a property covered with olive trees, this newly built hotel has very modern convenience delivered with the best of Cretan Hospitality and Charm!
After spending the morning exploring Elounda, the swimming pool shaded by olive trees, grape vines and hot pink Bougainville was a welcome oasis.
The staff was friendly and welcoming. The room beautifully appointed and already cooled when we arrived.
I am so happy have chosen this property for my stay in Crete, the Hotel is even better than it looks in the pictures. The rooms are amazing bright and modern, the views are spectacular and the girls at the front desk are just wonderful!, especially Vicky which goes above and beyond to ensure your stay goes smoothly. The staff are simply there to make your stay memorable and make you feel at home. Will definitely go back!🙏
Wonderful location with panoramic helicopter view over the Elounda bay. Spacious & comfortable room, nicely decorated with full amenities. Clean, hospitable, discreet & courteous personnel. Its location (including the embedded culinary Terrassa restaurant) is an oasis of accommodation, unique view, & delicious tastes. We thank Kostas & Anna, Despina & the serving team for the wonderful week we spent at their premises.
It's not a Leading Hotel of the World for no reason! We felt looked after & taken care of during our stay. We will be back. The beds are out of this World too: full adjustable & incredibly comfy (Room 131). We loved the extensive breakfast options, sunken bath, walk in shower & private balcony overlooking the sea too. Nothing is too much trouble when it comes to service either.
Great location with beautiful views of Elounda Bay. The hotel was is 15min walk into the main town and 30mibs from Plaka, another lovely Greek town.
The hotel has a great option of pool and beach and if you're lucky you also get your own semi private pool too and a balcony with your room.
The staff are super friendly and very helpful.
We were on half board, and breakfast along with dinner was amazing. Everyone from the adults all the way to our children enjoyed the food. The service overall is on par with a top 5 star hotel, and we never felt like we were missing anything or didn't have help from the staff. The staff always went out of their way to help us!
The location was fabulous - 20 minutes walking, and in the most beautiful, green setting. The views around us were incredible! I really loved the private patio attached to our room, as well as the bottle of wine upon arrival. The room was somewhat small, but completely comfortable. The hotel had a great bar and pool.
Very well situated with beautiful view of the sea and surrounding Elounda, we had available everything we needed and even forgot to bring ourselves. Rira our host was extremely kind offering us a lift to the property from nearby Elounda amongst other things. Fantastic place to stay when visiting Crete!
Kalypso Suites is right in the middle of Elounda. Everything is within a few minutes walking distance. I stayed in a suite which was really beyond expectation. The bed is the most comfortable I have had in a hotel in a long time and the suite offers great facilities with a huge outdoor patio.
We had a great experience at the hotel! We took a room with the see view and it was wonderful!
Absolutely the best breakfast at Elounda! Thanks to Georgios and the Chef!
Maria was sweet and helped us with everything we needed!
Highly recommended and we will definitely come back soon!
The staff was super friendly, from the reception staff to the breakfast & bar staff- especially Nikos! The room was really spacious on the ground floor and it had a bit of sea view as well. The location of the Hotel was great- very quiet area, yet few minutes drive to Elounda town.
Elounda was beautiful.
A relaxed place, easy to stay for a solo traveller. Loads of lovely restaurants right on the sea front.
As the food and ambience was so good at the Blue Sea Cretan restaurant in front of the hotel, I chose to eat there every evening.
expectations are met only at the entrance to the lobby of this very dated hotel. in fact the only thing they were concerned about spending money was the lobby furniture. then you go up the stairs to get to the room. it all ends there.
The staff were friendly but not sure some of them cared much about the guests. The hotels location was a short walk to the centre of Elounda. It was always possible to get a sun bed by the pool and Elounda itself it very pretty.
Excellent place, there is everything that You need - superb hotel, hotel restaurant with tasty food and fresh orange juice in breakfast mornings, pool, bar, cozy beach, and a lot of white wine! :)
